Why Israel Matters – There are many in Washington who are doing their best to quietly move America away from its traditional role as a defender and ally of Israel. With anti-Semitism at its highest level since World War II, Mathew Staver (Liberty Counsel and Christians in Defense of Israel) is committed to showing Israel’s amazing positive impact to the world via this 13-part documentary series. Currently being shown on TBN, channel 16.1 out of St Joseph, at 9:30 p.m. on Tuesday evenings, and online at www.tbn.org/programs/why-israel-matters/episodes. Mr. Staver himself appears in the final episode.

Adult Education Class - Shabbat mornings, 8-9:30 a.m. for the next several weeks, watching and then discussing the First Fruits of Zion produced television show entitled “A Promise of What Is to Come”. Each episode takes key concepts within the gospel message and connects them to the Kingdom of G-d from a Messianic Jewish perspective. See Jim Templer.

The viewing is said to be startling. Please leave for the event early in the morning. There is the possibility of a gridlock on the roads, similar to what happened on the Autobahn in Germany some decades ago when people started out too late to view a solar eclipse.

If you are interested in attending, please sign up on the sheet in the lobby. Details:

1. Or HaOlam is organizing a solar eclipse viewing fellowship day at the Claybrook Park Shelter, 21211 Jesse James Farm Rd, Kearney, MO 64060 (close to Jesse James Farm Museum). There are 9 picnic tables in a gazebo, 3 grills, water spout, and flush toilet facilities.
